Very easy to use, check all, choose to get favicons, delete, export list, etc... it's all there. Works with Firefox but the "get favicons" do not. IE, yes.
All in all a great little software, 5.

This program works well if installed. I however will always choose to use a portable version when ever possible so I can keep my machine clean.
While using the portable version of AM Deadlink 4.4 I do not get an option to download the favicons. The button for this feature is grayed out.
Other than that, like other reviews a good program. Have a support ticket in to maybe get this fixed.

This is a vacuum cleaner for bad and outdated bookmarks. Like others, I had thousands of bookmarks and too go through all of them to find dead links would be time consuming. But Am-Deadlink made it easy and has been for years.
Thanks for making it available! Kudos to the programmers. They make it happen.

I had a bookmark collection that was comprised of over 16,000 sites, amassed over several years and out of control. I knew there were many duplicates, and with some of the collection being a bit old, I figured some probably moved or closed. <br />
With a fast connection, I pushed it up to check 20 sites at a time, which it did without so much as a pause. When it was done, many of them were 404 errors. Many more were redirected. Then it scanned for duplicates. WOW. So many! It is very clever, catching sites which have vastly different names but lead to the about same place.
<br />
Here is why I love this software: it saves time and mind-numbing tedium because it highlights all of your dupes (except one for you to keep). There were well over 4000. Imagine how boring that would be, to delete them one by one. After a quick glance, I just clicked delete and my list instantly became manageable. It shaved over 6800 dupes/dead entries in minutes.

This gets a great rating for me because it was able to work with every browser on the test boxes, from Opera to Firefox and even IE. It would be nice if you could export bookmarks from one to the other, as i know many clients who use 2 or more browsers and want to integrate their bookmarks in a tidy way, but still, i liked it enough to put it on my on box ;)

Small footprint,easy on system resources and stable. Very easy to use. This program I found to be the best of its kind out of many I tested throughout the web. However it is not perfect so double check bad links when it finds one.

Fantastic! by KenStock

I've been looking for a program like this for a while. Works great! Very easy to use. It found over 260+ dead bookmarks in the thousands I have. I use it for both my IE and Firefox browsers.

Good software-just be sure to check the links it finds as bad-it only had an error on a few of mine.

What about rss links? by DeafScribe

It's a great program for managing ordinary bookmarks, but when used with Firefox, watch out - "Live bookmarks" that track RSS feeds are flagged with 404 as dead pages. If you're not aware of this, you could easily wipe out all your Live bookmarks.
If the program were tweaked to recognize RSS feed bookmarks, I'd give it 5 stars - it's a classic example of a great program that does one thing and does it very well.
